Article purpose

The purpose of this article is to explain how the TAMP backup registers are used by STM32MPU Embedded Software.

Overview

The STM32MP15 embeds 32 backup registers of 32 bits. A programmable border allows to split those backup registers into a secure and a non-secure group.
By default, the ROM code defines the 10 first backup registers as secure, but this secure/non-secure border can be changed later on from the secure context.

Backup registers usage

This paragraph explains for which purpose some backup registers are used by the ROM code and STM32MPU Embedded Software distribution.

Then, the next chapter shows the backup register mapping used to fulfill those needs.

At boot time

<securetransclude src="ProtectedTemplate:InternalInfo" params="Non-secure backup registers not yet developed usage:

  • by U-Boot or Linux remoteproc to store the Cortex<sup>&reg;</sup>-M4 firmware integrity check value. This firmware can be loaded in U-Boot or in Linux<sup>&reg;</sup>, depending on the boot chain configuration."></securetransclude>
  • Non-secure backup registers are used:
    • during a cold boot:
      • by U-Boot to initialize the boot counter, that should be reset later on by the application.
    • after a reset:
      • by U-Boot to get an eventual forced boot mode that was set before reset. This can be useful to set U-Boot in programmer mode after a reboot, for instance. Note that this forced boot mode is not interprated by the ROM code.
      • by U-Boot to increment the boot counter and perform given actions if a predefined number of successive boots is reached, due to cyclic resets before the application is alive (and clears the counter).
  • Secure backup registers are used:
    • to tell to the FSBL (TF-A or U-Boot SPL) how to behave:
      • on cold boot, the ROM code sets the magic number to 0x0: this value tells to the FSBL that a complete DDR initialization is needed before jumping to the SSBL (U-Boot).
      • on wakeup from Standby with DDR in self-refresh low power mode, if the magic number == 0xCA7FACE0 then the FSBL performs a partial DDR initialization to exit Self-Refresh then it branches the Arm® Cortex®-A7 core 0 non-secure execution to the given branch address (in Linux® kernel, that was set during secure context saving before the Standby low power mode entering).
    • by Linux® kernel on Arm® Cortex®-A7 core 0 (via a PSCI secure service) to tell to the ROM code how to start Arm® Cortex®-A7 core 1 (and enable the SMP mode): when Arm® Cortex®-A7 core 1 non-secure sees the magic number == 0xCA7FACE1 then it jumps to the given branch address.

    • by the ROM code during wakeup from Standby low power mode to recover the Cortex®-M4 firmware integrity check value and compare it to the one computed on RETRAM before starting the Cortex®-M4 again.

Notice: the ROM code knows if Cortex®-A7 and/or Cortex®-M4 have to be restarted after Standby thanks to RCC_MP_BOOTCR register, so the backup registers are not used here.

At runtime

  • Non secure backup registers
    • own the boot counter and should be reset by the application after a successful startup.
    • are used to store Cortex®-M4 retention firmware integrity check value before going to Standby mode, if the Cortex®-M4 needs to be started on wakeup from Standby mode by the ROM code.
  • Secure backup registers
    • are used by secure services to store:
      • Arm® Cortex®-A7 core 0 branch address that are used by the ROM code on wakeup from Standby mode.
      • Arm® Cortex®-M4 security perimeter that is restored by the ROM code before starting the Cortex®-M4 on wakeup from Standby.

Memory mapping

The table below shows the backup register mapping used by STM32MPU Embedded Software.
The TAMP backup register base address is 0x5C00A100, corresponding to TAMP_BKP0R.

TAMP register Security ROM / software register name Comment
TAMP_BKP31R Non-secure M4_WAKEUP_AREA_HASH This register can be used to store a SHA-256 value computed on M4_WAKEUP_AREA_LENGTH bytes in RETRAM starting from M4_WAKEUP_AREA_START, before entering in low power Standby mode. This allows the ROM code to perform an integrity check on wakeup before starting the coprocessor.

TAMP_BKP29R Non-secure
TAMP_BKP28R Non-secure
TAMP_BKP27R Non-secure
